Chapter 9 Troubleshooting
Operational Troubleshooting Use this section to diagnose and correct troubles with a direct drive or ball screw
driven linear stage after it has been commissioned. Read the entire section to
understand the kinds of troubles you can encounter and the possible fixes.
The evaluation procedures for both the direct drive and ball screw linear stages
helps you determine if faulty stage operation simply indicates a need to lubricate
the stage or a more fundamental problem. To interpret error codes reported by
the drive, refer to
Troubleshooting for Ball Screw Linear Stages on page 73 or the
drive manuals referenced on page 10 .
Symptom Possible Cause Solution
Linear stage, direct drive or ball
screw, passes Hookup testing but the
carriage jumps position when the
axis is enabled. Wiring of the Hall signals with
relation to the motor’s power wiring
is incorrect. Verify wiring of Hall signals (S1, S2,
and S3) and power wires (U, V, and
W).
Direct drive linear stage fails Hookup
testing, but wiring is known to be
correct. Incorrect drive firmware. Verify the Kinetix 6000 drive or,
Kinetix 2000 drive has revision 1.96
or later firmware.
Verify you are using version 16.00 or
later of Logix software.
